The March Equinox this year is about transformation. It's about your emergence – and the emergence of an increasing number of individuals – from conditions of conflict and suffering, and into experiences of enlightened living. It's about awakenings that are accumulating in sufficient number to uplift the collective values of humanity and affect sweeping changes in the way you live as a global community.

Beloved friends, it is I, Saint-Germain, and indeed it is a tremendous time of transformation for the Earth and all humanity. It is a time of profound change, and I and all of your friends in spirit would like to remind you of the goal of this transformation. This is a goal that you set before time began. It represents your desire to come into full awareness of your core Divinity; and then to share this remembrance of your Divinity with each other.

Your Recent Challenges

These past weeks have been challenging for many of you. Heightened conflicts, natural disasters, and urgent pleas for relief and freedom are only a small part of the changes that you are facing. It has tested your patience, your sanity, your compassion, and your awareness and acceptance, too.

But at the same time, you've had the chance to remember who you really are, and why you are really here. You are a Child of God, and God also... and you are here to support each other in sharing this reality of your Divinity in each and every moment. You are here to live it, and you are here to share it with one another.

Yes, for many, this is a time of tragedy. But you are not here to reinforce this feeling by falling into despair yourselves. You are here to break the chains of limited awareness that imprison your minds, your hearts, and your actual lives – and that keep you from acknowledging your core Divinity and building societies that reflect this.

Apocalypse or Epiphany?

The question on the minds of many today – even those of you with a spiritual orientation – is about the meaning of world events. Are we heading toward “doomsday”? Can it get any worse than this? There is so much fear circulating about this. And it is only driving the world toward equally fearful solutions.

But fear is not the answer.

Instead, you are being asked to step into greater roles of responsibility for the awareness that you have, and the influence that this has on others.

In the coming times, it will be the responsibility of each of you to counter fear and anxiety by focusing upon the truth: the Truth of your Divinity. The truth that you are a Divine Being, and that your spiritual origin and heritage is shared with every person on this planet.

When you hold this awareness with your heart and mind, it can nullify much fear and destructive potential in the world; and promote peace and unity, instead. It’s as simple as that.

Apocalypse or epiphany? Individually and collectively, you will all play a role in determining the outcome.

An apocalypse is a prophetic occurrence, often cataclysmic, in which good finally triumphs over evil – while an epiphany is a profound manifestation of Universal Truth that appears to you, most often, when you transcend this kind of dualistic experience.

The Choice Before You

The choice before you is this: Which focus will you hold? Apocalypse or epiphany? What intentions, thoughts, and feelings will you add to your life, and to the world now? Your contribution is truly simple, but the responsibility is great and the moment is decisive.

As Neptune enters Pisces in April, 2011, shortly after the March Equinox – and in the years that follow – you can do your part to move the world from conflict to peace. On the other hand, you can follow your fears and continue to fan the fires of collective instability. The choice is yours, as it has always been.

Neptune supported by Jupiter will steer you along the first path, while tensions between Pluto and Uranus will be directed toward the second. The final outcome will be the same, of course. A greater experience of God’s will-to-goodness will eventually emerge upon this planet. This is a matter of Divine Will and cannot be averted. It can only be delayed by human fear and indecision.

But the speed and ease of the transition, is something that you can affect. It’s all a matter of what you choose to do with the enlightened fragment of Divine awareness that you now possess. Will you continue to hold apocalyptic and fearful thoughts about world events, thus transmitting this fear to others around you? Or will you focus upon something that is closer to the Heart of God – something that is aligned with Divine Will, as you know it to be? This is your choice and your responsibility now.

What Can You Do?

Now is a time when real change is required of you individually, if you hope to enhance your collective experience of peace, instead of conflict. Your longing to be reunited with each other in Universal Love and creative collaboration, IS the agent for this change. But in order for this to happen, you need to make real choices and start taking real action.

You can start by acknowledging the kind of life you desire for yourself, and the kind of world you would share with others. Be honest and clear about your wishes, because what you set now as your intention, will influence your individual experience, as well as impact the collective reality. Accept your responsibility for choosing a better future now. Fear not, and act.

Embracing choice is about reaching a place of spiritual maturity. It’s about understanding the great power and strength that you hold within you. It’s about using patience, determination, and courage to move forward and assume your role in these times of change.

You will move through crisis with steadiness, staying away from the changing moods of the masses, and the turmoil that will continue to be present in the world. Instead of falling prey to fear, you will be a stabilizing force around the people in your life, because you are able to maintain your calm and understand that beyond the fragility of every moment lies a deep transformation. You will be able to feel the Love that flows through you from God and Divinity. And you are willing to generously share it with others, too - knowing that the more you give, the more you will receive in your life. Ultimately, you understand that beyond all this, lies the opportunity for everyone to experience a state of harmony with the Divine by allowing compassion to fill your hearts.

This IS the greatest achievement that all of you will work on in the months and years that are coming, and this time of the March Equinox will be the initiator of these experiences. Take up your role with humility and innocence of heart, and be courageous with your dreams and desires for a better world.

More About the Energies of the March Equinox

A transition toward enlightened living is being initiated during the March Equinox. There are many spiritual influences playing a part in this, and the impact – of course – is worldwide, as it should be.

You can begin to understand this, if you look to the Heavens, both literally and figuratively. Look closely at the healing forces behind the recent Full Moon in Virgo, the potent energies of the Sun and Uranus in Aries, the transformative power of Pluto in Capricorn, the heightening of Divine Will transmitted from the Galactic Center through the Nodes of the Moon, and most importantly – look at the compassionate attunement of Neptune in the final degree of Aquarius. Neptune placed here, resonates strongly with humanity’s need to reorient itself along the lines of Universal Love now.

Why is the placement of Neptune here important?

The last degree of Aquarius is about the emergence of the individual into enlightened group awareness and responsible cooperation, without sacrificing the right of self-determination. Neptune, the planet of transcendental awareness, is located here – and it also resonates with this message. Overzealous cries for independence are not the solution. Nor is harshly-enforced dependency. It’s about stepping into a new world of interdependence, instead.

Marc Edmund Jones, the astrologer, and the psychic, Elsie Wheeler, described the importance of this message in a vision that they had about the last degree of Aquarius:

“Deeply rooted in the past of a very ancient culture, a spiritual brotherhood – in which many minds are merged into the glowing light of a unanimous consciousness – is revealed to someone who has emerged successfully from his metamorphosis.”

This is the world you are moving into now. This is the energy of the March Equinox that is currently being activated. And this is message we have for you today. Thank you, my friends. You are deeply loved.
